A DiCaprio film about Portugal is coming to theaters

According to the operator, the film will be screened between Friday (November 11) and Sunday in Lisbon, Loulé, Viseu, Funchal, Aveiro, Braga, Matosinhos and Coimbra.

The tickets have “a symbolic cost of five euros and part of the income will be donated to a reforestation project that will be selected by Casa do Impacto”, which is an innovation hub promoted by Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa, specifies the exponent.

“From Devil’s Breath” is a 40-minute documentary short film that tells the story of the survivors of the Pedrógão Grande fire, in the summer of 2017, which killed 66 people. The film’s production and co-production team brought together several people, including actor Leonardo diCaprio and journalists Tiago Carrasco and Catarina Fernandes Martins.

The recordings of the documentary took place in early 2020 and tell the story of Nádia Piazza, who lost her son and who was president of the Association of Victims of the Pedrógão Grande Fire, of one of the seriously injured, Vítor Neves, firefighter Sérgio Lourenço, and Sofia Carmo, promoter of reforestation projects in the affected area.

“From Devil’s Breath”, which has already been screened at the Palm Springs Film Festival (USA) and at the United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP26), will be broadcast on Sunday 13 on the North American channel MSNBC and is available on the Peacock streaming platform.

The film is featured as part of the “Tipping Point” documentary series, from presenter Trevor Noah and production company Time Studios.
